Re: "emacs --daemon" does not load init file

["Chengqi(Lars) Song" <songcq@gmail.com>]

I changed the frame related settings to:

(add-hook 'window-setup-hook
         (lambda nil
            ;; font setting
            (set-default-font "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-10")
            (set-fontset-font (frame-parameter nil 'font)
              'chinese-gbk '("Microsfot Yahei-10" . "unicode-bmp"))
            ;; window positioning
            (setq default-frame-alist '((top . 0) (left . 0) (width . 100) (height . 40)))
          )) 
Now emacs-daemon can startup without any error message:
  loading.....  
  loading.....
  loading.....
  starting emacs daemon....

But then I found emacsclient -c can not connect to emacs daemon, and "ps ax|grep emacs" returns nothing. That means emacs daemon failed to startup...  It's so wierd, and I don't know why...
